This paper is concerned with the prediction of lift-off acoustic loads for a launch vehicle. Intense acoustic load is generated when a launch vehicle is lifted off, and it can induce vibrations of a launch vehicle which cause damage or malfunction of a launch vehicle and a satellite. Lift-off acoustic loads of NARO are predicted by the modified Eldred's second method and the result is compared with the measured data in flight test. The prediction shows similar peak and shape of spectrum to the test data, but some discrepancy can be observed due to the predicted margin. In order to reduce such discrepancy, the sound pressure levels with four source distribution assumptions are calculated. Also, the surface diffraction effects are considered in the predict ion of lift-off acoustic loads, and the predicted result is more similar to the test data.

Noise generated from maglev vehicles mainly consists of two components, one is due to mechanical noise and the other due to aerodynamic noise. The former is due to the vehicle-guideway interactions and the latter results from the unsteady air flow around the vehicle. Aerodynamic noise could become more predominant around 225 km/h for maglev vehicles. In this paper, the aerodynamic noise of maglev vehicles is investigated experimentally. The results of the wind tunnel experiments of maglev vehicle models are introduced and compared. The comparison shows that the position of the main noise is between the bottom of the vehicle model and the rail. It is also found that the emitted sound pressure level is related to the gap size between the vehicle bottom and the rail.

A scheduling technique for the improvement of yaw motion stability in in-wheel motor vehicle is proposed. Normally vehicle velocity is controlled via conventional PID method. When vehicle is encountered with different road conditions on left and right hand sides, unstable yaw motion is induced due to the driving force difference in both wheels. In this paper a scheduling formular for control gain is derived in terms of experimental results to generate proper counter control action. Simulation result reveals its effective performance in yaw control of in-wheel vehicle.

Recently, military vehicles that are being driven are equipped with a lot of electronic devices. The military vehicles are easily exposed to impact. Thus, they have to be designed robustly to ensure that the stability of the vehicle and the electronic equipment. In order to design the vehicles efficiently, the dynamic characteristics of a military vehicle have to be identified exactly. The main frame has a significant role to the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle. Thus, this research was progressed mainly with the frame. By carrying out road tests, the characteristics could be identified. Also, based on the characteristics, we constructed FE model of the frame and performed the analysis of the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle.

The structure of small launch vehicle can be divided into engine section and payload section. This paper introduces modal test of the payload section of small launch vehicle which is composed to satellite, PLA (Payload Adapter), VEB (Vehicle Equipment Bay), KMS (Kick Motor Support) and KM (Kick Motor). From this test, dynamic properties of the 2nd stage structure of small launch vehicle can be obtained. In this test, to simulate free-free boundary condition, test object was hung by 4 bungee cords and excited by using impact hammer Modal test data are analyzed by using TDAS(Test Data Analysis Software). As the result, modal parameters and mode shapes below 100Hz of the 2nd stage of small launch vehicle were identified.

The vehicle sound classified into driving sound due to power-train, operating sound due to electric motor like sunroof, door lock and electronic sound. These vehicle sound has various features depend on the characteristic of sound that user required. And it based on cultural and regional difference of user. In this study, the user required vehicle sound characteristics for luxury sedan was investigated in overall viewpoint. And virtual target sound was developed through the result of user preference investigation. Next, Jury test was carried out in Germany, USA and Korea for evaluating the target sound. And the regional and individual difference of preference was analyzed through the result of jury test. This result of research will be contributed to design of vehicle sound quality and target sound setting.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the possibility of damage to cultural assets resulting from vibrations generated by construction vehicle traffic. The cultural heritage's natural vibration frequency was determined to be 150Hz by measurement. The damping ratios were calculated as 4.7% using the logarithmic decrement approach and 4.3% using the half-power method. The vibration measurements obtained during vehicle operation indicated that, despite an increase in vehicle velocity of up to 15 km/h, the vibrations remained below the detectable level of 0.13 mm/sec. When the road is curved and the terrain is sloped, a suitable speed for vehicle operation was found to be around 17 km/h, at which point vibrations were seen. The highest recorded vibration amplitude at this velocity was 0.217 mm/sec, which remains below the stringent regulation limit of 2 mm/sec. Thus, it can be concluded that there is no actual harm caused by vibrations.

In this study, structural vibration analyses of a smart unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) have been conducted considering dynamic hub-loads of tilt rotor. Practical computational structural dynamics technique based on the finite element method is applied using MSC/NASTRAN. The present UAV(TR-S5-04) finite element model is constructed as a full three-dimensional configuration with different fuel conditions and tilting angles for helicopter, transient and airplane flight modes. In addition, the 3-dimensional supporting equipment structures of electronic devices are considered for vibration analysis. As the results of this study, transient structural displacements and accelerations are presented in detail. Moreover, vibration characteristics of structural parts and installed equipments are investigated for different fuel conditions and tilting angles.

Propeller shaft is one of the main excitation source in the vehicle driveline. This paper presents the correlation of the propeller shaft and axle vibration. 10 D.O.F. lumped mass model is constructed to simulate the dirveline. Experimental apparatus is constructed to verify the simulation model and to measure the vibration signal of lthe driveline. The results of simulation and experiments show that propeller shaft excitation is 2nd harmonic of the rotational frequency. Axle housing vibration signal shows that axle resonate with 2nd harmonic of excitation frequency due to universal joint effect.

In some cases it is important to be able to measure not only the total sound intensity on a panel surface in a vehicle cabin, but also the components of that intensity due to sound radiation and due to absorption from the incident field. For example, these intensity components may be needed for calibration of energy flow models of the cabin noise. A robust method based on surface absorption coefficient measurement is presented in his paper.
